Tang Baozhu was utterly shocked by what Brother Su said. She never expected that this person could think so far ahead, even considering what their future children would look like.
My thoughts are racing too fast, I can't keep up, I just can't keep up.
"Brother Su, what are you saying?"
She pretended to be embarrassed, put his hand down, turned slightly to the side, lowered her head, and blushed, looking very shy.
"Baozhu, don't be angry. I just couldn't help myself because you were so cute."
Su Rui'an was worried that it would be very awkward for the two of them to stand there, so he simply pulled out a long bamboo pole from a hidden place on the side. There was a hemp rope hanging on the pole, and a fishhook made from a needle at the bottom, which was a simple version of a fishing rod.
"Baozhu, I'm pretty good at fishing. I'll catch two fish for you to take home and eat. You must be exhausted after a long day at work. Eating some fish and drinking some fish soup will help you recover."
He dug up several earthworms from the damp soil and then went to his secret base to catch two fish for Baozhu to take back and eat.
Tang Baozhu did not refuse. Although there were plenty of such things in the space, it was still a token of her boyfriend's affection, and she should give him a chance to show his talent. Otherwise, how would she know how outstanding he was?
"Brother Su is really amazing. I'm going to have a good taste of the fish you caught today. Thank you, Brother Su."
Upon arriving at Su Rui'an's so-called secret base, Tang Baozhu looked inside and figured that the water was probably quite deep, so there might be some fish hiding there.
I didn't have high hopes for the fish in there, since the fish in small rivers are usually small, and there probably aren't any big fish to catch in such rivers.
However, she was still looking forward to it. After all, the person earned the fish through their own efforts, which was quite rare.
Su Rui'an was indeed true to his word; he was quite skilled at fishing. Less than ten minutes after the bait was released, a fish took the bait and was quickly caught.
Tang Baozhu looked at the fish she had caught; it weighed less than half a pound and seemed to be a small crucian carp. It would be good for making soup, but if she were to stew it, there would be too many bones.
As darkness fell, Su Rui'an had caught about eight or nine fish. If he didn't go back soon, the others might start to worry.
"Brother Su, it's getting late, I'm getting ready to head back. You should head back soon too."
Su Rui'an looked up at the sky and realized that it was getting dark. It seemed that he was too engrossed in fishing and hadn't even noticed that it was getting dark.
“Okay, there are so many fish here, take a few back with you, and I’ll take you home. I’m worried about letting you go back alone.”
Hurry up and pack everything up. Even the fish were all strung together with small vines picked at random, making it look like there were quite a lot.
"Don't give too much, you won't be able to finish it. When I was a sent-down youth, I ate alone. I just took two small ones, which were just enough to make a soup."
Tang Baozhu casually picked a vine from the side and threaded two small fish onto it. After Brother Su finished tidying up, the two of them headed directly towards the educated youth settlement.
It was already dark by then, and from a distance, we could see figures walking back and forth at the entrance of the duty station.
Tang Baozhu thought it might be those educated youth coming to find her, so she quickly told Brother Su to leave, because it would be bad if they were discovered.
After all, the people in the educated youth settlement were decent enough, so there was no need to let them know these things, lest they live in constant fear.
"Baozhu, you should go quickly. They must be looking for you. I'll leave after you go in."
Tang Baozhu nodded, waved to Brother Su, and then quickly ran towards the gate of the educated youth settlement.
"Sister Ye Li, were you waiting for me? I'm so sorry, I was catching fish by the river and lost track of time. I'm sure I kept you waiting."
It can be considered a white lie.
Ye Li and Tang Jianhua paced anxiously back and forth at the door. When they saw Tang Baozhu return, they felt relieved, but at the same time, they also felt particularly annoyed.
They really didn't know what to say about Tang Baozhu. She was going to the river to catch fish without telling them beforehand, making everyone wait so anxiously, and they thought something had happened to her.
You know, things have happened in the educated youth settlements before. Now they're all a bit like frightened birds, and the slightest noise makes them scared, wondering if the villagers have started something again.
He clearly wanted to curse, but thinking of Tang Baozhu's strange luck, he quickly held back the words he was about to say, or rather, he forced them to stay inside his mouth.
“Baozhu, you must tell us in advance when you go out in the future, and let everyone go with you. It’s really not safe for you to go out alone.”
Tang Baozhu looked at what Ye Li was saying and felt that it sounded awkward, like she was rolling her tongue.
She would never know that it wasn't a rolled "r" sound, but rather that the spoken words took a sharp turn, making it sound as if they weren't pronounced clearly.
"Actually, you don't need to worry so much. It's not just that I'm lucky, I'm also very strong. If anyone dares to cause me trouble, I'll break their legs in no time."
Tang Baozhu really didn't want everyone to follow her, because then she wouldn't have any private space, and it would be inconvenient for her to be with Brother Su.
To let them know that he wasn't lying, he found a stick about the thickness of his forearm nearby and snapped it in two with a single, forceful movement.
Then, looking at Ye Li and Tang Jianhua, he was pleased to see their shocked expressions, their mouths agape as if they could fit an egg inside.
Tang Baozhu didn't say anything, quietly waiting for the two of them to come to their senses.
This is indeed quite shocking, after all, it looks like a soft and cuddly little dumpling on the outside, but who knew that inside was actually a strong and tough Barbie.
Anyone who sees this will be shocked.
After they came to their senses, they looked at Tang Baozhu with a complicated expression. "Baozhu, if we need to go anywhere in the future, we'll have to trouble you to come with us. With you around, we feel much safer."
Cao Baozhu nodded indifferently. Anyway, they wouldn't call her, since they always went out together.
